FARMERS should not forget that the
bran and other coarse feed made from
wheat are richer in elements OF plant
food than the whole grain, and, OF
coarse, feeding them makes a richer
manure. A ton Of wheat bran is worth
sl4.59 cents for manure, while a ton OF
corn meal is only worth S865. These
figures are based on the cost of nitro
gen, phosphoric acid and potash In
their commercial forms, and represent
the comparative manurial value of
feed.

IT Is a great damage to hogs to keep
a large number OF them In a herd to-
gether in cold weather. They lie upon
each other and the ones at the Sosscm
are nearly smothered and get too hot.
In the morning they are steaming with
perspiration and heat. Such a condi-
tion Is most favorable for colds and
disease and no doubt is one Of the
chief reasons why hogs are most dis
eased In hog districts. They should
be separated into small droves OF not
more than ten in number and those Of
even size be put together. This will
also prevent SO much crowding and
fighting at feeding time.

FOOD FOR YOUNG TURKEYs.--Not
so many young turkeys would die, II
greater attention was devoted to their
food. For the first week equal quanti-
ties of hard boiled eggs chopped fine.
and good wheat bread will suit them.
This may be followed by curd made
from sour milk, and bread made OF
coarse flour or wheat shorts. If con-
fined, some chopped roots or dandelions
as well as some clean sharp sand
should also be furnished. Beyond six
weeks old, screenings or small wheat
may constitute large part OF their
food. Young turkeys need frequent
feeding and pure water.

FARM NOTES.

ppoFIT IN OATs.-Many farmers
say there is no profit In raising oats,
vet others find them q profitable crop
it the market price Of the grain Is not
nroHfable. the price paid for young
Stock ALWAYS is. The farmer who sells
cats and feeds his calves, pigs. lambs
and colts all corn, CT nearly 50. makes
a mistake. Not few men find oats
Improbable because they do not feed
them. or do not feed them properly;
VET more because they do not get the
mil value of the straw. II oats are cut
five days earlier than is the common
practice. the straw is worth for feeding
two-tbirds of It's weight of timothy
hay. and this earlier cutting increases.
rather than dimlnishes. the value OF
the grain. OF course the straw must
he kept bright. If it Is not cut until
II is "dead ripe'' and then piled up
after threshing to bleach and rot, 1t is
rot worth much for feed. But the
cutting, curing and feeding being
equally favorable, three pounds or oat
straw are worth as much for winter
feeding as two pounds of hay. True.
the other articles fed must have more
albuminolds than when hay is fed, but
this does not increase the cost Of the
ration. The biggest price for oats is
realized by cutting the crop when most
farmers would pronounce 1t green,
curing it nicely, then store In NOV or
under barracks, and feed gram and
straw together after running through
a cutter and moistenipg. Cutting oats
little early, also reduces the cham es
of their lodging, and their liability 10
lodge is the most serious objection to
them by farmers who have a soil rich
in nitrogen and rather deficient In
silica-a very poor soil for all grains.
GREEN MANURING.-Green manur-
ing is an operation familiar to every
American farmer, but, as they do not
all grow clover, vetches or Italian
grass, they will not all appreciate the
value OF manuring with these crops.
In France, England and the Northern
States the practice is well known, and
Its success depends on ehectually COW
eripg the vegetable matter turned un-
der the soil in the operation OF plough
ing. When 1t is intended TO use the
crop directly for fertilizing, the
ploughing should be done Just as the
flower is about to open. and when the
days are sunny and the soil Is dry, In
order to facilitate decomposition.
Fully three-fourths of the organic mat
ter thus buried has been derived from
the atmosphere. and the land so trea-
ted obtains its fertility from the even
distribution of the nitrogenous crops,
which are decomposed at a very low
but certain rate. Practical men OF
large experience consider the value OF
a green crop plowed in as equal to the
droppings of cattle which have been
fed on three times the quantity. The
great fact behind this all important
action is the decomposition OF the
nitrogenous compounds which yields
ammonia and nitric acid, from which
nitrates are formed.
